An ultrasonic device to detect changes in fracking fluid.

 

Meet Cypress - for Fracking.

Cypress for Fracking is a compact lightweight ultrasonic device for monitoring changes in process fluid - such as sand concentration and particle size. This new technology can replace the traditional radioactive densometer -- removing the risk to human health, as well the high costs and red tape from the job site.

In addition to marking fluid changes, the SoundWater flowmeter is measuring flow at the same time, all from outside the pipe with ultrasound passing through the pipe to measure the fluid flowing inside.

Cypress installed on a 3 inch surface line, monitoring changes in sand concentrations - used to mark flush.

 

Advantages & Features

  • it is not harmful to humans

  • it doesn't contact the fluid so is not prone to destruction from sand blasting and high pressures and high speed fluids,

  • it indicates process changes, can be used to mark flush, and monitor flow.

  • it can be installed quickly between stages if needed.


The Orcas App: Intuitive, Efficient, Accurate

Quick, Accurate Setup
You have almost all setup parameters from pre-loaded, drop-down menus—so you go faster and risk fewer errors.

Bluetooth-Enabled
The Orcas App automatically connects to your Orcas Sensor through your device’s Bluetooth technology.

Always Improving
The Orcas App also lets you provide input and feedback to SoundWater so we can continually enhance its capabilities—and those enhancements arrive regularly on your device via simple App update.

Save and Re-use Location Settings
Ideal for repeated periodic checks.

Accurate
The Orcas App automatically filters flow data, then uses an advanced proprietary signal processing techniques to calculate flow.

English or Metric Measurements
Pre-loaded, input and displayed values in your system of choice.


Connects to your SCADA, PLC, Data Acquisition System.

 

On-board Electronics
Connect 4-20mA, pulse, or MODBUS RTU output to your system.

Bi-Directional Sensing
Mount once, measure both directions.

No Pipe Modification
Install on the outside of your pipe and senses through the pipe wall. No need to modify pipes.

Accurate
Measures -60 to 60 ft/s (-20 to 20 m/s). Typically accurate to within 2.0% or less (depending upon pipe size and application).

Rugged
IP65 splash-proof, weather- and corrosion-resistant. Operable in ambient and flow temperatures from -40F to 212F (-40 to 100C).

Bluetooth Connectivity
The Cypress sensor and your mobile device communicate reliably, without wires.

Built-In Data Logging
Conveniently record flow for as long as 365 days or as little as one minute.

Lightweight, Weatherproof Case
Take your Cypress anywhere with confidence and ease.

FCC, RC Approved
